In this episode, we delve into the intriguing story of Balaam and Balak as recorded in the Book of Numbers. Balaam, a pagan prophet hired by Balak to curse Israel, ends up pronouncing blessings instead. Through a series of three attempts to curse Israel, we witness how God speaks through Balaam, emphasizing Israel's unique status and divine protection. The narrative highlights the importance of understanding the structure of the story, particularly the repetition of threes, and culminates in prophecies about a future King from Israel.
